# Exporting cAdvisor Stats to ElasticSearch cAdvisor supports exporting stats to [ElasticSearch](https://www.elastic.co/). To use ES, you need to provide the additional flags to cAdvisor: Set the storage driver as ES: ``` -storage_driver=elasticsearch ``` Specify ES host address: ``` -storage_driver_es_host="http://elasticsearch:9200" ``` There are also optional flags: ``` # ElasticSearch type name. By default it's "stats". -storage_driver_es_type="stats" # ElasticSearch can use a sniffing process to find all nodes of your cluster automatically. False by default. -storage_driver_es_enable_sniffer=false ``` # Examples For a detailed tutorial, see [docker-elk-cadvisor-dashboards](https://github.com/gregbkr/docker-elk-cadvisor-dashboards)
